There was a rally scheduled in DC for May 16th that was to call for the removal of the top political crooks. Did it take place and if it did do any of you freepers know where to get info about it? I'll thank you in advance for sharing what you know.

Oh dear God. It was atrocious. A promise of 10-30 million promised but only 100 people showed up. The problem was weather and organization. The message was fine but the Tea Party organization was horrible. We are the laughing stock on social media, but thankfully the networks ignored it. Hopefully the Tea Party will do a better job of their 2015 rally of the same event.

They called it "American Spring", like "Arab Spring", and the media is trying to use it as "proof" the conservative grass roots are dead.

It's not weather. It's not organization. It was this guy's crazy message. Nobody wanted to be a part of an organized 'coup'.

I do not doubt that we will revolt at some point, against the depredations we face from an overbearing Federal government, but it will be a SPONTANEOUS revolt, and it will be after food or water or energy becomes too expensive.

You are so right, Laz. It was the message. I wanted no part of it.
